A study on virgin coconut oil looked at its efficacy in weight reduction. Twenty obese men were given virgin coconut oil during the study.

The efficacy of the treatment was assessed by measuring weight and lipid profile one week before and one week after the treatment program. Safety was assessed by comparing organ function.

According to the study, as reprinted on the website Green Med Info:

"... [W]aist circumference (WC) was significantly reduced with a mean reduction of 2.86 cm ... [virgin coconut oil] is efficacious for WC reduction especially in males and it is safe for use in humans."
